Why did you provoke me?

Secretary Wu looked helplessly at the two people grabbing his arms.

"What good things do I have that you're coveting? Tell me."

Yan Lei immediately said, "That newly researched weapon."

Niannian nodded in agreement. "Yes."

Secretary Wu tugged at his arm again. "The new weapon is still under research; I don't have a finished product here."

"Uncle Wu, there are many mountains in Feng County, and even more reckless criminals. You don't want to see my brother Xiao get hurt again, do you?"

Xiao Wen coughed lightly from the side.

Yan Lei immediately grasped the key point. "Uncle Wu, Brother Xiao used to be such a strong and robust man, but now he's coughing. Would he be like this if he hadn't been injured?"

Niannian quickly followed, "Uncle Wu, I don't want to cough like Brother Xiao."

Yu Meng couldn't hold back any longer. She waved her hand, turned around, and left.

Xiao Wen put his fist to his mouth and coughed twice. It was unclear whether he was genuinely coughing or just trying to cooperate with Yan Lei.

Uncle Wu shook off the two hands on his arm. "You're going too far. You're threatening me."

Two voices rang out simultaneously, "No, absolutely not, we are begging you."

"If everyone acts like this, how am I supposed to manage them in the future?"

"Uncle Wu, I'm not an outsider."

"Uncle Wu, there are no outsiders here."

Secretary Wu laughed in exasperation, but in the end, he still gave each of the three of them a new type of weapon.

Yu Meng left the room and slowly walked towards the gate, with Jing San quietly following not far away.

The lame man saw Yu Meng but didn't leave his little gatehouse. Yu Meng didn't speak either, just quietly watched him through the glass.

Finally unable to withstand the pressure, the cripple came out. "Are you going out?"

Yu Meng nodded.

They're all gone.

Yu Meng looked at him and asked softly, "Did that formation master come with you?"

The lame man stiffened for a moment, then turned around. "I don't know what you're talking about?"

"I'm being targeted, you know that, and I don't want to be a lamb to the slaughter."

"It wasn't them," the cripple finally said again.

"Okay." A single word came from Yu Meng's mouth.

But Yu Meng still went out, and Jing San quietly followed behind.

She needed to sort out what had happened during this time. If the cripple said it wasn't them, then there must be another force watching her from the shadows.

Since the incident in Feng County ended, it seems that all the scheming has vanished.

The events of the first battlefield unfolded before her eyes, as if rehearsed. This force compressed the space on which Jingchuan Guild Hall depended for survival into a single line.

The person behind it was certain they would fight, so he withdrew his henchmen and decided to watch the show.

If the cripple's words were true, Yu Meng wouldn't do something so foolish as to make her enemies laugh.

But this also caused her trail to go cold.

Yu Meng rarely goes shopping, and walking on this uneven road was uncomfortable, with her feet sinking deep and sinking shallowly. So she wrapped her legs together, making it look like she was walking, but her feet weren't actually touching the ground.

Jing San saw this from behind and couldn't help but sigh, "If Teacher Yu weren't strong, there would be no one to reason with. Even just walking, she's exercising her muscles."

Following suit, Jing San also wrapped the thread around his legs, but his feet were still on the ground.

Seeing that this wouldn't work, Jing San changed his approach. He put all the lines on one leg, and as a result, he walked like a real cripple, staggering along, which drew stares from passersby.

Jing San's face flushed slightly, but he could only force himself to look on. He mentally encouraged himself: "You short-sighted bunch, once I can fly, I'll be someone you all look up to."

Meng, of course, didn't miss the commotion of the people on the roadside. She glanced back and then continued walking forward.

She recalled the time she had her feet wrapped in thread, and she had gone through the same ordeal. Only back then, she hadn't embarrassed herself in public.

Jing San noticed Yu Meng's glance and his body stiffened for a moment. But then he stopped paying attention and focused on getting used to the strength in his legs.

The best way to avoid being laughed at is to master the skills required at this stage as quickly as possible.

Yu Meng kept going until she unknowingly reached the outskirts of the city.

Jing San followed along, staggering, and somehow managed to walk such a long distance. He was surprised himself; he seemed to have gained a slight understanding of this power.

Yu Meng stood there without moving, while Jing San lifted his left foot, then his right foot, and in a daze, he felt as if both of his feet were dangling in the air.

He took a tentative step, steady and without veering off course. He took another step, and thankfully, he didn't veering off course either.

He stood there with his feet dangling in the air. Yu Meng turned around and looked at him. "Not bad. If you want to last, you still need to work hard."

Jing San didn't speak, but simply bowed deeply to Yu Meng.

"Let's go back." Yu Meng turned around and walked back, this time much faster.

Jing San had been highly focused the whole time, but when he returned to the clubhouse, he actually felt a little sleepy.

"Go back and get some rest. Haste makes waste," Yu Meng added.

Although she was unwilling to teach personally, if someone understood something in front of her, she would say a few words, but whether the person understood or not was none of her concern.

Jing San's transformation was quickly noticed by everyone. Knowing that he had mastered the skill after just one trip with Yu Meng, everyone's eyes turned red with envy.

Jing San was also open-minded. When he was learning from Yu Meng, Yu Meng didn't hold back, so he didn't hold back when he practiced either. As for whether they could learn it or not, who knows?

Except for Jingyi, who wasn't home, everyone else started working hard quietly. Even Zhang Zhen came out and practiced with everyone.

Jing Er was the second one to stand in the air. As long as he was awake, his lines never left his legs, which is why he made the most fools of himself.

But he didn't care. Now he stood in the air, and everyone gave him a thumbs up and respectfully called him "Senior Brother".

Liu Wei's eyes were bloodshot. He tried very hard, but the time allotted for cultivation was limited. While he was working hard, others were not idle either, so he struggled to catch up and ended up in a very sorry state.

Seeing his condition, Jing San quietly approached him and said, "Go find Qian Chuan and ask him to prepare some strengthening medicine for you. Otherwise, if you keep practicing like this, you'll be ruined sooner or later."

Liu Wei was someone who listened to advice, so he found an opportunity to go and see Qian Chuan.

Upon meeting him, Qian Chuan was shocked. "Has your yang energy been drained?"

Liu Wei slumped into a chair. "Don't talk nonsense. These people are all working their butts off in their cultivation. I arrived late, and even if I tried my best, I couldn't catch up. I need you to think of a way for me."

"I told you, why are you doing this to yourself? Wouldn't it be better to be ordinary? Why do you have to work so hard?"

"No, Teacher Yu pulled us out of the abyss. I want to be able to help her when she needs it, instead of just standing there watching."

Qian Chuan fell silent. He too had been saved by Teacher Yu, but he didn't feel it as deeply as Liu Wei and the others.

He patted Liu Wei on the shoulder, "Since the test subjects have been delivered to my door, I won't be polite."

Liu Wei slapped his hand away. "It has to work."

"Who do you think you are? I'm a genius, just you wait."

Liu Wei stood up. "Okay, I'll wait."
